Hi I Nagy,

Thank you again for all the valuable information on the prior translation. I am overly impressed by the quality and accuracy of your knowledge, it feels like asking the encyclopedia of Asian art :)

I have these three drawings, I presume from the same artist. Is there any inscription on any of these that could tell who is the artist ?

Thanks again.

能見堂　- Nōkendō　Temple
擲筆松　- Fudesute-matsu (Brush-throw pine*)

*According to the legend, a court painter in the Heian era tried to draw the view from here, but his brush didn`t advance to the superb view. Finally he threw away his brush at the foot of this pine tree.
(The tree was cut down during the last war)

With regards,
I.Nagy
